[wart Green Podded Bush Beans.-swmes 
BARLY WARWICK. One of the earliest, if not the earliest Green Bush Bean. 
The pods are stringless until they reach a stage at which they are past maturity 
for marketing. As this Bean is so remarkably early and likewise suitable for 
shipping long distances, we believe it will be found to be a valuable acquisition. 
It is a heavy cropper, producing an abundance of pods which average about 
514 inches in length. 15c. pkt., 30c. pt., 50c. qt., $2.00 peck, $7.00 bush. 
EXTRA BARLY REFUGEE. It is similar in every respect to the ordinary 
Refugee, but is nearly two weeks earlier. It is enormously prolific, and from its 
earliness is almost certain to produce a crop, no matter how unfavorable the 
season. The favorite sort with Southern truckers and planters as it-matures 
equally early with the Red Valentine, and has that beautiful silvery green color 
in the pods that is so much desired. In quality it is unexcelled, being excep- 
tionally free from string, and meltingly tender at all stages of its growth. Our 
stock of this variety has been specially selected and improved, and we recom- 
mend it. 10c. pkt., 25c. pt., 45e. qt., $1.35 peck, $4.50 bush. 
| Barly China. An old standard variety that is very early. 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 
40c. qt., $1.15 peck, $4.00 bush. 
WHITE MARROW. The variety so extensively grown for sale in the dry state. 
It is also valued asastring bean. Seeds are 
ivory white. 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 40c. qt., $1.15 
Our packets of Beans, with peck, $4.00 bush. 
few exceptions, are really Large White Kidney. Excellent as a shell 
fee naibapinn uk bean. 10c. pkt., 25c. pt., 40c. qt., $1.35 peck, 
$4.50 bush. 
REFUGHE, OR THOUSAND TO ONE. This 
has always been popular; it is a very productive 
medium or late variety. The young pods are 
tender, of fine flavor and of handsome appearance. 
Is extensively grown for pickling. 10c. pkt., 
20c. pt., 40c. qt., $1.15 peck, $4.00 bush.

One of the most valuable characteristics of Hender- \ ih 
son's Bush Lima is its EXTREME EARLINESS, as it comes in \. 
from two to three weeks ahead of any of the other climbing Tay 
or Bush Limas, thus supplying us with a delicious vegetable i 
at a time when the garden is somewhat bare, filling in, as it 
does, the gap between Peas and the Pole Limas. The small 
size of Henderson’s Bush Lima, which at first was urged as an 
objection to it, has proved one of the strongest points in its 
favor, as the public, rightly enough, prefer small beans, al- 
ways associating great size in Lima beans with coarser 
quality. Henderson’s Bush Lima is enormously pro- 
ductive, bearing continuously throughout the summer 
until killed by the frost. Its greatest merit, of course, 
lies in the fact that it is a true bush variety, requir-
